Autosystems currently has 4 pending office actions in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are being reviewed by 4 distinct examiners across 2 distinct art units. KRYUKOVA, ERIN is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. The presence of 4 examiners for 4 actions indicates no overlap in personnel, though the work is concentrated in 2 art units.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
